SOLTRAK™ Modular Solar Roofing

Modular Solar Roofing

MSR’s flagship product SOLTRAK™, is a
Modular Solar Roofing system that incorporates two
unique innovations: polymer roofing tiles that can have
solar cells integrated directly into the tiles; and a
proprietary track mounting system that is easily installed,
allowing the tiles to be snapped into place with no tools.
This innovative Building Integrated Photovoltaic (BIPV)
system is produced using high-volume, tight specification
manufacturing methods derived from the automotive
industry, resulting in a durable, watertight, high-
performance solar roof.

Most solar power systems offered for residential rooftops today use large panels that have been optimized for large industrial and commercial applications. They are expensive, difficult to install on small rooftops, and generally too unattractive for most homeowners. Without subsidies, the payback time from the energy savings often exceeds the lifespan of the solar panels themselves. However, with the low upfront cost of SOLTRAK™, payback is greatly enhanced – and the homeowner has a good looking roof.

With SOLTRAK™, the installation of the PV system is simple,
rapid and safe; it is done as part of the roof itself. So, it
also shares the cost with the roof. Instead of paying twice
to first install a premium roof and then a complex PV
system on top, the homeowner pays for only a single,
simple installation. By
reducing the up-front capital cost of solar power, SOLTRAK™
lowers the biggest barrier to residential adoption of PV
technology.

Additional benefits of SOLTRAK™

The lightweight polymer tiles are easy to handle and
transport.

The embedded solar cells provide a seamless and
attractive appearance.

The roof looks the same regardless of how much PV solar
is installed.

The textured, high-impact polymer tiles provides superior
protection for the solar cells, as well as less
reflection than glass.

In addition to the benefits of solar energy, SOLTRAK™ is one of
the most environmentally friendly roof systems available.

Tiles can be easily replaced, so the solar system can be
expanded or repaired with little effort. Adding additional
solar power is simple and low cost.
